About Swedegas
During EQT’s ownership, Swedegas has grown substantially and further improved its position on the Swedish energy market. The Company has, amongst others, secured consolidation of the Swedish gas transmission market, connected new customers to the network and become the Transmission System Operator (“TSO”) with responsibility for balancing of the gas transmission system.
In addition, Swedegas has strengthened its organization in order to improve operational excellence and enable further growth. These efforts have resulted in substantial growth in the number of employees (c. +60%) during EQT’s ownership.
